Employment Law Advice for Executives

At Harmers Workplace Lawyers, we understand that the employment issues executives may face can be stressful and often need to be addressed urgently. The team at Harmers is highly experienced in assisting executives with all aspects of employment law across a broad range of industries.

We appreciate that often matters need to be dealt with the utmost discretion and sensitivity, which may involve us providing legal and strategic advice “behind the scenes”. Other matters will require us advocating strongly for the position of the executive with the threat of legal proceedings. We will discuss and agree the on the appropriate approach in consultation with the executive, so that we are working together on an agreed strategy that will yield the best commercial outcome for the executive, whilst protecting their professional reputation.

We have extensive experience in providing expert legal advice and/or negotiating terms and conditions of executive employment contracts, including complex bonus arrangements, profit sharing plans and remuneration packages that are unique to executives.
We also have extensive experience in assisting executives with the problems they commonly face on termination of employment, including the enforceability of restraint of trade clauses, and the restrictions on the quantum of termination packages imposed by the Corporations Law.

We have acted for some of the most senior executives of the top 100 ASX listed companies, as well as executives working for smaller companies, and we respond to all enquires with utmost discretion and professionalism.

If you would like to discuss an employment matter on such a basis, please contact our legal team on phone: (+61 2) 9267 4322.
